G7 reiterates non-recognition of Russia's Crimea 'occupation'
By EUobserver
The G7 group of leading economic powers said it would not accept Russia's annexation of Crimea from Ukraine, in a statement marking seven years since the takeover, AFP reports. "We unequivocally denounce Russia's temporary occupation of the autonomous Republic of Crimea and the City of Sevastopol. Russia's attempts to legitimise it are not, and will not, be recognised," it said.
